Arsenal legend urges club to buy Ruben Neves

Paul Merson suggests Arsenal to sign midfielder Ruben Neves.

The 25-year-old Portuguese midfielder has attracted the likes of Manchester United and Arsenal and has been linked with an exit this summer window.

‘If I was Arsenal, I’d be going after Ruben Neves,’ Merson told Sportskeeda.

‘Manchester United are going to be after him as well. I’m not sure how Wolves are going to keep him at the club, to be honest.’

He has been a stellar figure at Molineux for the past five years and manager Bruno Lage is aware of the transfer rumours.

‘In these days we need to be ready for everything, especially a club like Wolves,’ said Lage this week.

‘I’ve said before that the value of players like Ruben is £100million or above. We need to be aware of everything. We cannot lose a big opportunity.

‘Anything can happen, not just with Ruben, and if we want to improve our squad we have to have players on our radar – the best guys at the best price.

‘My chairman and sporting director already know what we need if something happens in any position.’
